<P>I had news a week os so ago, the NETs tumour in my pancreas has grown. It seems the MET in my liver is stable. The oncology team has booked me in for Dotatate &amp; FDG PET scans this Wednesday &amp; Thursday, 25th &amp; 26th March. All good, no big deal there.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I live 90 minutes North of Sydney, where the scans are being done. Usually I would catch the very busy commuter train up &amp; back. This time due to COVID, I’ll drive.&nbsp;<BR /><BR /></P><P>My scans were originally booked for RNS public, as usual, but were subsequently moved to RNS Private. Less foot traffic, fewer people &amp; I guess less chance of infection, I don’t really know.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>The Point: &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; there isn’t any information, from what I have seen, on what people with chronic disease and low immune systems do to navigate transport, hospitals, medical clinics or even supermarkets safely.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I personally don’t have any of those concerns but, I did hear a woman tell another in ALDI yesterday, she was cancelling a doctors appointment, due to the Coronavirus.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>By &amp; large, the government is doing the best it can, in these strange &amp; difficult times. I do think a little more information should be made available to agencies and media for better distribution to the public. Knowledge is power, or something like that!!!!????<BR /><BR /></P><P>Lindsay</P>Fri, 20 Mar 2020 17:01:00 GMThttps://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/Cancer-and-COVID-19/Hospitals-amp-COVID2019/m-p/33613#M12Lindsay2020-03-20T17:01:00ZRe: Hospitals & COVID2019https://onlinecommunity.cancercouncil.com.au/t5/Cancer-and-COVID-19/Hospitals-amp-COVID2019/m-p/33684#M15
